Differences Between Hard & Normal Endings [SPOILERS]

[pokerdan99]

So, just finished Hard Mode, and I noticed 2 new things in the ending:

1. When the TV announces the presidential assasinations, it's preceded by Evan talking about his book (with his wife I think) instead of Martin talking about his movie.
   
2. There's a poem at the end of the credits, "For the Dear Old Flag, I Die"

Any other differences I missed?

An a side note, I hear people talking about controls being reversed on the final level, but they were normal for me (on keyboard) - Were they supposed to be reversed?

When you are drugged with the son the controls are reversed. The Evan book thing is changed by going back to the typewriter or not I think, not because of the difficulty.

[angstlicht]

its actually just the poem and the flipped perspective afaik.

the interview thing is dependant on evan decision in outro to release

[Dr. Sex]

With Evan, there are two choices. Going to the phone to call your wife, or going to the typewriter. I guess the first time you went to the phone. This happens after chapter 20 i think, when there's a note on the table from Evan's wife. There is nothing changed in Hard Mode. (except levels being flipped and the difficulty)

The inverted controls were patched out

That is actually random. I got a Bible my first time and an open book the second.

The reversed control for Apocalypse on hard were supposed to be glitches.
Evan on the typewriter or eating with his family is determined by going to the phone to talk to Richter or reading his wife's note. (Whenever the note appears.)

(Personally, if you ask me, they should've left the reversed controls. The level's not really anything special when it comes to difficulty.)
